What inspired Hemingway to write, nay, LIVE with such intent? Why did Teddy Roosevelt do and experience more in his life than most of us would even dare to in our dreams? Why is it that so few do, while millions more dream, think, and wish? It’s 9:31 on a Saturday night. I just finished […]
Rites of Passage for the Modern Day Man
The following is a guest post, written by Victor Balasa. He opens up a discussion about rites of passage. In times past these were the singular moment when a boy became a man. These rites of passage helped develop warriors. In today’s society, these lines have become blurred and eschewed beyond recognition. But I’ll let Victor […]
Write Your Life’s Script: How Great People Plan Their Life
The world is built by inspired people. Why is this? The other day I wrote an article about Napoleon Bonaparte. One of the themes you’ll find in reading about Napoleon, is his boundless energy. When he wasn’t orating, he was studying. There weren’t days where he slept in. Where he was overwhelmed, or lazy. His energy […]
How to Lead, Succeed & Other Lessons from Napoleon Bonaparte
In one of my favorite books, Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill, the author of the book, tells his readers to study great men (or women). To study them intimately. Study them in such depth that we know their routine, even how they think and how they’d react to situations in our own lives. Know them […]
Cooking for Dudes
Ah, the dude. ‘Tis I, the single bachelor who, when left to my own devices, chooses speed and macronutrient breakdown over taste and quality. When I go home to see me Ma and Pa, I’m transported to another world. One where every meal is an experience. Where nutrition and taste are combined. I eat. I […]
Want to Build Muscle, Lose Fat, or Make Millions? You Need Tunnel Vision.
I’m a stubborn human. Ask my parents, or anyone close to me for that matter, and they’ll tell you that it can take me a lot longer than it should take to learn a lesson. Example: I have a great barber. Every time I get my haircut, I walk out with a smile on my […]
Fuck Mediocrity and Become a Legend
Fuck mediocrity. Say that at every opportunity this year. Every time I write an article, workout, buy something, set a goal, book a trip, read an email… I’ll say The hell with mediocrity. No half-assedness, only whole-hearted and purposeful action. No small plans, only gargantuan missions. The other night my dad made a statement that […]

How Forrest Gump Will Help You Make 2013 a Success
Last night I watched Forrest Gump with my family. ‘Twas post-Christmas dinner, and even though it was 4:30 in the PM, I had to fight to stay awake. My belly protruding past my toes – or at least that’s how it felt – showing that my Mom had once again outdone herself in the meal that, more […]
Lift Like a Man!
I can remember the weight room the day of a dance at my high school. It was PACKED. Like no other day of the year, it was flooded with young idiots in their tank tops trying to get a pump before they show their moves on the d floor. Sadly, I was one of those […]
How to Have a Legendary Workout When You’re Lazy as Shite
It’s Sunday and watching football has kept me horizontal for the past three hours, rising only for the essentials: to drink water, to expel water, and to refill my bowl of ice cream (cheat day). Sunday is my lazy day. I did, however, still get up at 5 am and hit the ground running, but […]
It’s OK to Be Ambitious
You can’t get in great physical shape by doing nothing, by being lazy and unmotivated. So why do we think we can get anything else by doing nothing, by being lazy and unmotivated – but even worse – by being jealous of those who’ve done the work & gotten the results we want? I start […]
Use Different Angles to Build a Better Muscle
Depending on what plane we’re using, we can work different aspects of the muscle. Take the traps for example. When we’re upright, performing a shrug, we work the upper trap. When we’re faced down on an inclined bench, we’re working the mid/upper portion of the trap. As that angle changes, and we move into more […]
Why Superheroes Need Muscle
Superheroes Need Muscle The hero has always been a flawed version of the ideal. Courage is his (or her) most prized attribute, along with honor. From Boewulf to Lancelot. William Wallace to King Arthur. The hero’s physical skill and stature rivals the strength of his spirit. He’s never a mindless brute, as Wallace displayed time […]
The Man’s Man of the Year
The Man’s Man of the Year A man’s man is that guy who inspires. He’s an archetype. A leader. But not just a leader of those who follow at every opportunity. He’s a leader of leaders. He’s the leader of men who are as strong as he is. They look to him for inspiration. For guidance. We, […]
